Everybody:
I have a slightly OT question, I hope somebody would be able to help me.
I am currently playing with CF 4.5 under Redhat 6.2 with MySQL. Everything
seems to be working well, but there is a small security issue that I don't
seem to be able to find a solution so far. Apache seems to allow by default
directory browsing -- for example, if you have a folder
http://www.mysite.com/images/ that contains only images and no index files,
if somebody types in the URL of that folder they will see the contents of
the folder.
I would like to prevent users from seeing what files are in the folders.
Placing an index.html file in each folder is a solution to this problem, but
I think there might be a better solution with permissions, or maybe APACHE
settings. Can anyone help me with that?
Thanks,
Dimo Michailov
